Free up to a cap, unlimited with Premium
The recipe book the whole household cooks from.
Create your recipes by hand and browse the community: included in the free plan, up to 6 recipes. With Premium, you get unlimited recipes, import from the web, creation with Melia and ingredients sent to your shopping list.
Everyday life
No more “what was that recipe again?”
Good recipes get passed around: between partners, between generations, between friends and between browser tabs. Gathering them in a shared recipe book you actually cook from is what makes the difference.
You spot a recipe on a blog. With Premium, you paste the link into Melimelo, and the ingredients, steps and cooking time land in the household recipe book, neatly laid out and ready to cook.
Gran’s Tarte Tatin, written down once and for all in the household recipe book: ingredients, steps, photo. The day someone else wants to make it, it’s right there, no phone call to ask for the quantities again.
The recipe serves 4, but there are 6 of you tonight. You change the number of servings and, with Premium, Melia recalculates the quantities and even updates the steps that mention weights. Meanwhile, the oven heats up.
Features
Designed to make cooking stress-free.
Shared household recipes
Everything you cook lives in one place, open to every household member. Anyone can browse, follow the steps or add a new recipe to the collection.
Melimelo community
As well as your own recipes, browse the online recipes shared by the community. Try them, add them to your household to edit them, keep the ones everyone loves.
Manual entry
Name, photo, tags, servings, prep and cooking times, then the ingredients with their quantities and the steps one by one. Your recipe, written down the way you cook it.
Create with Melia
Tell Melia what you fancy. She suggests ingredients, steps and tweaks, and you work on it together until the recipe suits your household. One tap to add it.
Import from the web
Paste the URL of a blog or cooking site. Melimelo pulls in the title, ingredients, steps and cooking time, neatly laid out in your recipe book. No more 50 open tabs.
Serving adjustments by Melia
4 people tonight, or 12 for Sunday lunch? Melia recalculates the quantities with sensible rounding and adapts the steps that mention weights.
Add ingredients to the shopping list
The recipe’s ingredients go onto your shopping list, with duplicates merged, units converted, and cuts of meat or fish kept apart so nobody gets it wrong in the shop.
Nutrition estimates by Melia
From the ingredients, Melia estimates calories, protein, carbs, fat, salt and fibre per serving, and adds a word on the recipe’s overall quality.
Household categories
Create your own categories (starters, Sunday dinners, kids’ recipes) and organise the book the way your household cooks, not like a database.
Search and tag filters
In the household recipe book, search and a tag filter help you find the right recipe without scrolling. And a quick-create button close at hand.
Recipe from a photo
Take a photo of a dish or of a page from a book, a recipe card or a magazine. Melia turns it into a complete recipe with ingredients, quantities and steps, which you check before saving.
Connected to the rest
Linked to everything else in the household.
- ShoppingShopping
With Premium, a recipe’s ingredients go onto the shopping list: Melimelo merges them with what’s already there, converts units and tells cuts of meat apart.
- Meal planMeal plan
With Premium, a recipe can be dropped into a meal on the weekly meal plan. Planning starts from the recipe book, and the other way round.
- FridgeFridge
Before you decide what to cook, the fridge tells you what needs using first. The recipe is built around what you have, not the other way round.
- NotesNotes
An informal recipe starts life in Notes. When it deserves to be written up properly with ingredients and steps, it moves to Recipes.
All the modules talk to each other. Not just these 4.

Build your collection
Type it in, import it from a web link (Premium), or let Melia put a recipe together with you (Premium). Tags keep it organised from the start, and your own categories come with Premium.
Cook with focus
The recipe page shows the number of servings and the prep and cooking times, then the ingredients and the steps in order. The whole household cooks from the same version.
Plan what’s next
Set the number of servings for your guests. With Premium, Melia recalculates the quantities, and you send the ingredients to the shopping list or add the recipe to the weekly meal plan.
